I have so so so many personal projects going. I do NOT have time to make a medieval illuminated manuscript version of Put Baby in Pelican Mouth. Please someone stop me.

Someone pointed out yesterday that I can now do the Badass Norse Braid ™* and I’m suddenly like, you know what, Norse men’s clothes ~do seem very comfy…. :plots:

* i have a super-lesbian (and super-modern) haircut, buzzed around the sides and long on top with femme sideburns; i keep it under caps at events, but by about midnight last night I had had enough of that so everybody saw that I had put the top bit in a braid. which i have to do because then the caps actually have enough friction to stay on, lol

When World’s Collide

I was gone this past week at Home Works - an urban mission trip I have done for the last 17 years. I have never hidden the fact that I participate in the SCA from anyone; least of all the kids I work with and bring on this trip. Most of them know I do it because I have had some Shire friends come in for a presentation on the Crusades and Church History, as well as borrowed armor for an Armor of God visual aid. Anyway. Aside from those times were I intentionally include the SCA in my work life, it has never collided. Until this past week. We were sitting at dinner, talking about how the Knights of Columbus (a Catholic men’s organization) would be sponsoring the Friday night meal with a cook-out, when one of the adults asked if I know, “Fred So-and-so.”

I admitted that the name sounded familiar, but I couldn’t place. The person told me that they said they knew me, and wanted to pass on a hello. I had grown up at the Church that hosts the mission so it wasn’t a surprise that the name was familiar and that someone would know my name. My family has been at that parish for over 40 years. But then, “They said they knew you from the medieval stuff you do.”

There is an SCA member who attends my home parish and I am not sure who it is. So since then, I have been scratching my brain, trying to figure out who this person is. I know that it has to be one of those situations where I know them better by their SCA name, but I can’t place them. I have scoured my Facebook, but I don’t have a friend by that name. And several people in the FB Group’s have accounts under their SCA name, so that doesn’t help me either.

SCA PROBLEMS Y’ALL!

So like, I was all excited to come back after a busy day and write and stuff. And then, well, 2 authorizations, 6 tournaments, two fucked up knees, a weird ankle, 3 hours of sleep, and a large bruise on my chest later (damn people are going to think I was beat up or something, well kinda...but you know in a way that I signed up for I guess) I’m all tired and headache and everything I write I feel is becoming garbage compared to what I’m reading. 

I’m becoming such an old woman I swear I creak when I stand up and I’m going to probably need knee replacements in 10 years because I’m such a dumbass

In short words, there won’t be anything out tonight like 99.9% sure. 

Angsty author apologizes, angsty author hopes that everyone is having a good weekend and a nice time and I’m sorry I’m suck a slacker and write horrible stuff and guys I get weird when I’m sleeploopy I sorry. 

<3 <3 <3 

I’m setting such a bad reputation for all of the new followers I got recently. 

Everyone is going to think I’m nuts. 

What even is this?

It was supposed to be like an updatey thing but you know.

Here’s the update I guess:

Most of my writing is going to be limited to the weekend, so expect new stuff mostly around Friday, Saturday and Sunday (though I still answer asks and messages and stuff during the weekdays, I’m just too busy to be able to write.)

LOVE YOU ALL,

-Your angsty writer who really wants to be able to talk to you more but is bad at making friends because she’s awkward and shy.

In honor of deciding not to buy feast at an event in a particular barony. Not naming names but last time I had feast it was no bueno. So here’s to bad feasts everywhere!

Watching a live Facebooking of Ansteorra’s crown tourney! I have no idea why it’s so dang exciting!

I live with my grandmother right now and every time I go to an SCA event she always says to me: “I hope you meet your Prince Charming.” 

It’s not gonna happen lol but it’s really sweet that she says that.
